Sean Hannity recounts his emotional attendance at the White House ceremony honoring the late Charlie Kirk, where Kirk's widow, Erica, accepted the Medal of Freedom on what would have been Charlie's 32nd birthday. Sean shares a touching message from Kirk's daughter and reflects on Kirk's lasting impact his commitment to faith, accountability, and positive youth influence. Hannity highlights striking statistics: a notable surge in Bible sales and Christian app use, which he frames as "the Kirk effect," proof that Kirk's values resonate nationwide even after his assassination. Special guest mentions include Christian artists like Lauren Daigle and Michael W. Smith, connecting musical inspiration to Kirk's legacy. This moment matters, Sean argues, because it exemplifies how faith-driven leadership can ignite national cultural change and encourage others to seek higher purpose.

Speaker 1 (00:01):
I thank you, Scott Shannon, thanks to all of you
for being with us.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Right down our toll free telephone number if you want
to be a part of the program at say eight
hundred nine four one Sean if you want to join us.
I look, I tried to take off as little as possible.
I was so honored to get the invitation to be
at the White House yesterday for the ceremony honoring the
late Charlie Kirk who was assassinated and his wife Erica,
(00:27):
receiving on his behalf the Medal of Freedom. I honestly
it was let me play a moment that really just
got to me and got to everybody that was there,
and I'm sure got to the entire country, because the
whole country was watching where she shares. It was on
what would have been his thirty second birthday. It's pretty
(00:49):
unbelievable to think of, you know, him not being here,
and him being so young, and him just really in
the prime of his life. It's kind of like the
age that I started for crying out loud, I started
a little bit earlier. But and how much he had
to offer, and how talented and gifted he was certainly
(01:10):
wisdom beyond his years. I can say that, and the
same with Erica, but this was this was heartbreaking.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I asked our daughter what she would like to say
to Daddy for his birthday. Excuse me, she said, happy birthday, Daddy.
I want to give you a stuffed animal. I want
(01:47):
you to eat a cupcake with ice cream, and I
want you to go have a birthday surprise.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
I love you, That's what she said.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
I'm mean the reality is is that now she must
raise these two beautiful children, precious children.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
I will say this.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
It does give me comfort knowing I had I had
Charlie's chief of staff, the pastor that married him on
last night. He did surround himself with amazing people that
had incredible values.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
His faith is way.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
More important to him, was more important to him, and
instilling that in young people was his passion in life.
And and they they worked very hard at at for him.
He would he would be so inquisitive. He wanted answers
to be able to give these kids when he'd do
these open mic moments with them in these hostile environments
(02:43):
on college campuses. You know, and I bet a lot
of these kids never heard or you know, many people
speaking out, certainly not in the classroom, on issues involving
their lives and what their life can be. And you know,
injecting hook up culture for example. I mean, it's so
commonplace today you just kind of take it for granted
(03:05):
and that's just the way things are. But does it
have to really be that way? You know, I'll use
my words, not his, but you know, really going to
frat parties and being the kid throwing up at the
end of the night and the bushes outside, is that
the life you want to live? And you know how
pervasive drug use is among young people today, and hearing
(03:28):
that maybe you should get back to church and believe
in God and find a higher purpose and the purpose
for which you were created. And he was successful, and
even in the aftermath of his assassination, that message still
resonates and is resonating around the country, and I'm hearing
it from people all over the place. Linda, you'll find
(03:49):
this interesting. You know, I always kid around on the program.
How you know my daughter has never been particularly that
interested in what her dad does for a living. Was
just a couple of years ago, I said, well, what
time's my radio show on? And she didn't get the
right to time. Right, He goes, oops, I mean, you know,
I mean, now she's he watched the entire thing yesterday,
(04:10):
and she said, why didn't you take me? I didn't
know she wanted to come. I would have gladly taken her,
and uh and then telling me that she was crying
and and how this had deeply impacted her. And you know,
my son had only wanted to meet two people of
all the people I've interviewed over all these years. He
wanted to meet President Trump and he wanted to meet
(04:31):
Charlie Kirk and I was able to arrange both and so.
And then this poll comes out today. I thought this
was pretty amazing. It was actually on Fox News where
I saw it, stunning data revealing a surge in Christianity
in the United States. Look at this forty one point
(04:52):
six percent in terms of an increase in Bible sales.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Maybe we call it the work effect. I don't know,
seems like it to me.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
App downloads of the Bible up a whopping seventy nine
point five percent, Christian music streaming plus fifty percent. I mean,
I don't talk about it a lot, but you know,
I often at night will go to YouTube and I'll watch.
I think some of the best music out there is
(05:23):
my buddy Michael W. Smith is one one concert of
his that stands above all else to me, and I've
told him this personally is the bridgestone Rena Michael W.
Smith twenty eighteen. And I probably see ce Winans as
part of it. He's got a whole band accompanying him,
and you watch the crowd, and I can't I get
(05:46):
something out of watching that every time that I see it.
I love cc Winan. I think she's one of the
as one of the most angelic, amazing voices of all time.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
And I love of other.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Christian singers too many, too numerous to name it this point.
And I you know, i'd love, for example, Hillsong. I
know they had their controversy in New York, but that
does not take away from the profound and deep message
in their music. And I love Christian contemporary music. It's probably,
I guess now it's really my number one format that
(06:22):
I'm that I like and what I listened to more
than any other genre of music. I know, Linda, you're
into it as well. Anyone who do use your favorite
you love you have a lot of.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
People Uh, I'm a pretty big fan of Lauren Daegel.
I'm really into Uh.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
We saw Lauren Diegel in concert. Oh really, I didn't
tell you that I got I was able to go
online and buy front row seat just like came about.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Yeah, it was.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Uh, it was here in my free state of Florida,
and I had three other people with me, and I
guess somebody on our team spotted me. And then I
got to go backstage and meet her. I have pictures
with her and got to's.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Pretty amazing talk to her. She's incredible, very special. Her
voice is unbelievable. Yeah, and it's pretty wild.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
I'm a big fan of that song Rescue. And you know, look,
you know, people ask me all the time, how have
you survived as long in this business and is competitive
as it is? And people come and people go and
all this stuff. And I really credit two things, and
one is certainly my parents and the work ethic that
they instilled in me from a young kid. And I
(07:32):
know my kids roll their eyes. If I start listing
every job I've had in my life and that I
started out without any money in my life, nobody wants
to hear it anymore. I got it I've heard you
loud and clear. I won't go over it, but it did.
It had a profound impact on me. And the other
thing that had a profound impact on me is all
those years that my parents dragged me to church and
(07:53):
twelve years of Catholic school got to me and I
realized that I have a conscience and a soul. And
if if I snap at Linda, you know, even I'm
using you as an example, you know, usually I'll say
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that. You know,
just little things bother me. My conscience is alive and
well in me. And what is a conscience. A conscience
(08:14):
is an awareness something within you let you know you're
being a jerk and you're wrong. So if there's two
things that have kind of protected me in my life,
I would argue those are the two things. And I
would even then take it another step and say that,
you know, if I was going to write two more books,
one would be an Undeserved Life and the second one
would be Everything I wanted to tell you, but new
(08:34):
would get me fired. Everyone likes the title to that,
and they're like, what did you want to say that
you didn't say? Why don't you just have the courage
to say it. But I would say, in my mind
that is the Charlie Kirk effect. And you know, to
the extent we don't talk probably enough, we were so
immersed in the day to day political comings and goings,
(08:55):
because if you don't live in a free country, none
of this is possible. So that is a prerequisite in
my mind why my passions politics. But at the end
of the day, you know, all of us, I believe,
you know, we all have a unique fingerprint. We all
were created by the same God. I believe that my
(09:15):
entire life. That's why I can't stand people that are racist,
et cetera, et cetera. I believe that the word education
the Latin that I studied in high school at a seminary,
is so relative. And I've used this term a lot
because I think it's so impactful. And the root word
of education is a ducrede to bring forth from within
that that's predicated on a belief that God put in
(09:38):
every every human soul potential. I believe in human potential.
I believe in the individual. I believe the best system
of governance that that allows for that potential to rise
to the top is is liberty and freedom and capitalism.
That's what I believe the great story of successive America.
(10:00):
It's based on liberty and freedom, and that liberty and
freedom allows you to be the person that God created
you to be. Certainly, our framers and our founders understood
the Judeo Christian principles as a as a foundational principle
to make this country, allow this country to be great.
As imperfect as they were, they believe we were endowed
(10:22):
by a creator, a God, and that this country, you know,
is not You know that that rights come from God,
not from government. These are not these are not cliches,
these are not phrases. These are deeply held beliefs and
principles that should guide our country in the years, in
the decades to come, knowing that every generation which is
(10:46):
one generation away freedom, is one generation away from extinction.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
As Ronald Reagan told us.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
And you know, my advice to people, and people ask
me all the time about, well, what advice do you
have for me? Is find whatever you love and find
a way to make money at it. And it doesn't
matter what you do. But the other thing you have
to do is you have to understand that you're not
here to be served. I think that we are here
to find our purpose and serve other people while you're
(11:14):
also building your own life. You know, people create goods
and services that others want, need and desire. That's capitalism.
And while you're doing it, you're helping others and it
benefits you. It's a win win, and it's the perfect system.
You give everybody everything. Why is anybody ever going to
try to reach their true potential?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Then not?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
And that's the whole point. That's why socialism and I
wrote an whole chapter and live free or die in
every form manifestation, you know, fails. That's why when people
trust the government, I can't understand it for the life
of me, because the government doesn't do many things well
at all. How's your school system, How's law and order?
You know, how's the government doing with their managing of
your money? Social security, medicate all on the verge of
(11:57):
bankruptcy and solvency in spite of promises, and then the
left promises more and more government and what you know,
how did the Obamacare work out? Didn't work out too well?
And so I want everyone to, you know, live in freedom,
and that gives you the window of opportunity. And it
doesn't matter what age you are. You know, we're now
on the precipice. And I say this to you, my audience,
(12:19):
because you've been so good to me and gave me
a life I never dreamed of. And that is I
just say to all of you that I believe foundationally,
we have now set this country up for what the
president is called a golden age. You know, when Reagan
cut taxes, it was the longest period of peacetime economic
growth in history, dropped the top marginal rates from seventy
(12:41):
to twenty eight percent. Donald Trump just gave us the
largest tax cuts in history. That means that the economy
is going to grow. Interest rates are going to go down.
You know, sale of pre existing homes will kick back in,
home building will kick back in. Never before in our
history has any one president I think in all the
(13:02):
years Biden was in office and Obama's in office, maybe
one one, you know, maybe one hundred billion in committed investments.
Donald Trump is he claimed eighteen trillion in invested money
in the next four years for manufacturing semiconductors and pharmaceuticals
and all sorts of other things. All of this is
(13:22):
opportunity for you, energy dominance, freeing up our energy sector.
All of these are going to represent opportunities. The only
thing that might get in the way of you taking
your life to the next level is any self imposed limitation.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
You know.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
For example, I know people that would be like, oh,
I'm never leaving my hometown. Well, okay, that means either
the job comes to your hometown or you would miss
out on an opportunity to quadruple your salary and start
a new career, especially young people that might be listening
to the show. You know, dream big, don't dream small,
and take chances. Look down, you're on the high board.
(14:00):
It's scary, jump and and do so with faith and
confidence that you know you're designed to jump. Is God
put you on that board for a reason, and that
things will come out of it that you never imagined
or dreamed of. When I first got behind a radio
microphone and I loved it, you know, I jumped and
jumped and jumped and kept jumping, and you know, and
(14:23):
it got bigger than I ever imagined. And I think
that is the personification of you know, finding your God
given whatever talent. I'm not saying I'm talented I'm just
saying that finding what you love and you know, sharing
it with others and serving others. Look at them, look
at I'll go through this on the other side. But
think of all the every person that serves you in
(14:45):
a restaurant. Okay, they're all serving you. You're We're not
designed to sit back as kings in this life, in
my view, So we have a lot going on in
terms of news today.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
I'm why all of it.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
The Schumer shut down continues, the radicalism by Governor Pritzker.
You know, I look at this, this idiot. I can't
believe that this is the state of the Democratic Party.
You know, politically, I'd like to say it's great for
the Republicans, and it is the radicalization of the Democratic Party.
(15:23):
And when I was in DCS today, I talked to
a lot of people about this.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
They'd never seen anything like it in their life.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
And I actually, I think I'm able to pinpoint the
canary and the coal mine on this.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
And I believe it was Joe Lieberman.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
And remember Joe Lieberman, vice presidential candidate Democratic Party ran
for office.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
What are you wrong with Al Gore? And what year
was that? Ninety two? Whatever?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
No, I'm sorry. Two thousand, yeah, two thousand so, and
then he runs in Connecticut. I mean he was not
he was not liberal enough for Connecticut. Now on issues
involving national security and defense and standing up against radical Islamis,
(16:10):
he was phenomenal. He was great, He was steadfast, he
was strong. He believed in America's strength, he believed in
america defense. He believed America out of purpose and not
that we want to fight wars. It's just we need
to understand there's a lot of evil in the world,
and we got to protect ourselves and protect our freedoms
and our liberties. And I think that's why Donald Trump's great,
(16:32):
greatest legacy will be the Golden Dome eventually one day.
And anyway, he gets primaried and loses the Democratic primary
in the state of Connecticut. Unbelievable, and then he runs
as an independent. And he's running as an independent. He's
always been a friend of the show. He used to
come on the show. He passed since passed away. His
(16:53):
wife Adasa, one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.
And he used to come on this show regularly. And
you know, I used to kid around with him and
we talk about what we agreed agreed with and what
we disagreed with.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
You know, you could agree with him and not be
so disagreeable.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
He would be one of the Democrats that would be
outspoken against this Nazi, fascist racist Hitler Stalin Mussolini comparison crap.
He would be against it anyway. So he's running as
an independent. And I always liked him, and I would
say that on radio and TV. Linda, you remember you
were with me back in the day I was, And
(17:31):
then you remember the story because I got a call
from Joe Lieberman. He said in his very soft spoken way,
he was a kind of soft spoken guy, very kind,
very generous, that could never raise his voice kind of guy.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
And no, and he was even when he argued he
was gentle. He's like, well he always did that, that
was his thing.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
WOA.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
And he always came on the show, always very kind
with his time.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Right all right, and his family is terrific. So he
calls me one day out of the blue or writes me,
and then I call him whatever however that worked out,
and I said, uh, hey.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Sena, how are you. What's going on? What's going on?
Speaker 2 (18:09):
He goes, you keep talking about me on your radio
and TV show, and you keep saying nice things about me,
he said, every time you do, you're killing me in
my race in Connecticut.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
I said, really, I said, well, I'm just telling the truth.
You're a nice guy, and.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
That we get along, and that you know, you are
liberal on social issues, not by the way, not nothing
by today's liberal standards on social issues and woke in
trans and DEI and all that, nothing compared to today.
And I said, well, do you want me to start
trashing on radio and TV? Would you like me to
attack you?
Speaker 1 (18:44):
It would? Would that help you out more?
Speaker 2 (18:47):
And it forever became a joke with us, and then
he ended up winning in the general election as an
independent in Connecticut.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
But that was the tip of the iceberg.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
That was the tip of the spear, That was the
canary in the coal mine. That was the moment the
Democratic Party began this process of now going off the rails,
you know, culminating and where Chucky Schumer is with the
Schumer shutdown, which is, you know, he has to give
in to the radicals that run his party, and he
is giving into them. And you know, I was having
(19:19):
this discussion, I explained, I was talking to a bunch
of senators last night, I had an opportunity to speak
to them and.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
I told them that story.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
They were they loved that story and off the rails
and I talked to even more quote moderate Republicans and
they couldn't believe the story.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
And they can't.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Believe what they're dealing with in the US Senate and
how Chuck Schumer is just unavailable to even have a
reasonable discussion with at this point when meanwhile, he, as
we've played over and over again, he spent his entire
career talking out against against shutting down the government. Pretty
fascinating little detail that Axios picked up. We had picked
(19:58):
up on it as well, that Democrats in Congress say
President Trump's methods for paying the military and funding food
stamps for vulnerable communities are clearly illegal, but they're not
going to fight it, you know, because the President is
planning to divert eight billion dollars in previously appropriated funds
for the military for military research and development to pay
(20:19):
the troops. As we now are at the point they're
no longer going to be getting checks now, they can't
do a thing until this what is this called the
Kings No King's rally that they're having around the country,
all over the country on Saturday, by the way, wherever
you live, find out where these rallies are and stay
(20:40):
and keep your family as far away as possible. That
is my tip of the week. Don't go to those rallies.
Don't don't have anything to do with it. Now, if
you want to report on it, just know you're putting
yourself into a hostile area. And God only knows what
some of these these lunatics on the left are capable of.
We said, what was the guy's name, Nick Soto nor
(21:01):
Nick Sorter, and we had him on TV. I've really
admired this guy, and he's very popular on social media.
And he kept going back. They had one hundred nights
of protests in Portland, and night after night. The one
night that he he had already been assaulted by these
lunatics and he walks back in the next night. This guy,
(21:23):
God bless him. He's got an American flag with him.
God forbid you bring an American flag, you know, to
one of these, you know, pro Antifa, you know anti
ice protests. Got to help you, and but he did
it anyway. Then he ended up getting arrested the charges
obviously dropped. He was a victim in this case, but
I give a lot of oh hang on. The President
(21:45):
is now speaking from the Oval Office, and the FBI
directors there as well.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
Let's listen in we house, and that's really what's happened,
and getting tremendous reviews, and we appreciate it, but we're
here for a different reason. It's called Operation Summer Heat,
which is an appropriate term in light of what we're doing.
And early yesterday morning, I returned from the Middle East
where we celebrated a historic agreement in years of suffering
(22:10):
and conflict. Amazing. Every country came together, I mean even
the enemies came out and totally endorsed it. Everybody.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
I've never seen anything like it.
Speaker 5 (22:20):
Nobody's seen anything like it. And just as we are
forging peace and stability abroad, we're also restoring peace and
safety and stability at home. And you see that in Washington,
d c. Maybe better than any place, because we got
there and within twelve days it was very good, and
within thirty days it's been as safe as any city
in the country. It's been great. Took out seventeen hundred people,
(22:43):
got them out. These are career criminals in many cases,
and people that shouldn't have been allowed in by the
Biden administration. Historically, the summer months have been a time
when violent crime sore, as you know, but not under
President Trump today also of a sweeping law enforcement effort
known as Operation Summer Heat. We were in many cities
(23:04):
that people didn't know about. We kept it a little quiet,
and it had a big impact. And you'll hear that
in a second. But over the past few months, FBI
offices in all fifty states made crushing violent crime a
top enforcement priority. That's what they did, rounding up and
arresting thousands of the most violent and dangerous criminals. And
(23:26):
these are among the most dangerous and violent people in
the world. They were allowed in many cases, not in
all cases, but in many cases they were allowed in
by a very foolish, actually stupid open border policy. Just
anybody could have come in. They emptied out their jails,
their prisons, their mental institutions, they emptied them into our country.
(23:46):
And the people behind me have done an incredible job
because if we didn't have that administration, it would have
been so much easier. They allowed millions of people in
this country that shouldn't have been allowed, including over eleven
thousand murderers, half of whom murdered more than one person,
and many of them are gone now or they're put
in prison because we don't want to have them come back,
(24:08):
so we literally put them in our prison, which we
don't want to do, but we bring them back to
their countries working with state and local partners. The FBI
arrested over eight thousand violent criminals during the course of
this period in major cities like in New Orleans Nashville.
We saw a two hundred and fifty percent increase in
arrests we got, and we really went after the bad ones.
(24:31):
These include seven hundred and twenty five individuals wanted for
violent crimes against children and murderers. These arrests are in
addition to the work of our historic federal task forces
that make DC safe. Task force has been unbelievable. I mean,
the job they've done, it's incredible, and it's been so
(24:53):
nice because so many people they're going out to dinner
and they're having dinners they wouldn't. They didn't go out
for four years, and now they're going out three times
a week. Restaurants are opening, restaurants are full, and usually
that means a lot of good things. But restaurants that
were closed they're now opening up, and everybody's happy. It's
(25:13):
nobody's ever seen anything like it, actually, and everybody feels safe.
You can you can have a child walk right through
the middle of Washington, DC and nothing's going to happen.
We were losing more than one person a week. And
why they're being killed.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
On an average if you look at the magnitude of
this week, understand the president flew all the way to Israel,
then he flew to Egypt, then he flew home, arrived
about two thirty three in the morning, then he had
a full day with the President of Argentina, did a
full cabinet meeting, did the Medal of Freedom award for
(25:50):
Charlie Kirk, and here he is back at it today.
I've never seen anything like him. I mean, think of
the Biden years. You'd never see your president when you did,
he couldn't hawk pretty unbelievable now based on what he
is saying, you know, listen to like the likes of JB.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Pritzger.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Now, remember four thousand dead people under his watch as governor,
four thousand, five times the rate the New York City
and he's suggesting, Hey, you Trump officials that are trying
to keep the people, the citizens of my state alive,
you might get prosecuted when Democrats are back in charge.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Listen to this.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
We're going to call for accountability, and indeed, you know,
the tables will turn someday. These people should recognize that
maybe they're not going to get prosecuted today, although we're
looking at doing that, but they may get prosecuted after
the Trump administration for the things that they did because
the statute limitations won't have run.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
How about maybe charging people that go out of their
way through defund dismantle no bail laws. Reimagine the police
were simply, like in the case of Chicago, turning a
blind eye to weekly statistics of people shot and shot
and killed. And they're the ones that are supposed to
(27:06):
be in charge and keep people safe and secure.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
What is the first role of government?
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Is it not to allow you know, law and order, safety,
security again a prerequisite to pursue happiness.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
It is.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
It is such a spectacular failure in my view, but
you know, they just keep doing what they're doing. They
keep fuming away. I noticed the story today New York Post.
Letitia James, fugitive grand niece lives in the house that
she bought through that mortgage of fraud allegation, has been
arrested twice for assaulting cops, not once, according to the
(27:42):
New York Post, but twice. Oh boy, I can't make
all this up. I mean, the looney left is the
looney left, and they're getting worse and worse by the day.
They're not getting better, They're getting worse. Another example, you know,
I mean, we sat there for four years watch Biden
Harris Mayorker's light, US borders closed, border secure, Oh okay.
(28:03):
ICE moved to detain a Biden the illegal who raped
an eleven year old girl three times after Biden immigration
officials labeled the child rapist the non enforcement priority. This
is according to the Department of Homeland Security. US Immigrations
and Customs Enforcement has lodged an immigration detainer against a
thirty five year old criminal illegal from Al Salvador who
(28:25):
is convicted of repeatedly raping an eleven year old girl
in Virginia. Ice lodge the detainer against this guy, who
was sentenced to thirty years in prison following his conviction.
His crimes are, as they said, unthinkable, monstrous, repeatedly raping
an eleven year old girl in her own home. ICE lodged,
then arrest detainer to ensure after his prison sentence, he
(28:49):
is removed from our country, not able to prey on
any more innocent American children. Biden administration marked this Hannis
criminal as a non enforcement priority, allowing this idiot to
roam free and commit more crimes. They pointed out in
their statement, you know, these are the types of depraved
individuals and criminals our brave ICE law enforcement officers are
(29:12):
arresting and removing from our country every single day. Ever
noticed the media? They don't care. And you know, why
would JB. Pritzker take down the fences? Why would Gavin
want the masks off of ICE agents that are being
doxed and threatened the way they have that they don't
have jurisdictions called the supremacy clause. It's the federal government
(29:35):
that enforces federal laws, not the states. And they're trying
to circumvent federal authority themselves and then lecturing us on
what a threat to democracy actually looks like when they
themselves are the real threat to democracy anyway. Eight hundred
nine to four one sewn. Oh and by the way,
you remember big balls that work for Doze. Yeah, the guys
(29:55):
that beat him up, the teams that beat him up. Yeah,
they get a slap on the wrist. Ah, why bother
punishing them? Remember the guy that the pro Palestinian fire
bombers flapped with a fifty year jail sentence for trying
to assassinate Thank goodness, Josh Shapiro. Unbelievable. His family was
sleeping in that house. And if you saw the pictures,
it's scary as hell. Eight hundred nine one Shawn. If
(30:19):
you want to be a part of the program,
I thank you, Scott Shannon, thanks to all of you
for being with us.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Right down our toll free telephone number if you want
to be a part of the program at say eight
hundred nine four one Sean if you want to join us.
I look, I tried to take off as little as possible.
I was so honored to get the invitation to be
at the White House yesterday for the ceremony honoring the
late Charlie Kirk who was assassinated and his wife Erica,
(00:27):
receiving on his behalf the Medal of Freedom. I honestly
it was let me play a moment that really just
got to me and got to everybody that was there,
and I'm sure got to the entire country, because the
whole country was watching where she shares. It was on
what would have been his thirty second birthday. It's pretty
(00:49):
unbelievable to think of, you know, him not being here,
and him being so young, and him just really in
the prime of his life. It's kind of like the
age that I started for crying out loud, I started
a little bit earlier. But and how much he had
to offer, and how talented and gifted he was certainly
(01:10):
wisdom beyond his years. I can say that, and the
same with Erica, but this was this was heartbreaking.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Listen.
Speaker 3 (01:20):
I asked our daughter what she would like to say
to Daddy for his birthday. Excuse me, she said, happy birthday, Daddy.
I want to give you a stuffed animal. I want
(01:47):
you to eat a cupcake with ice cream, and I
want you to go have a birthday surprise.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
I love you, That's what she said.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
I'm mean the reality is is that now she must
raise these two beautiful children, precious children.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
I will say this.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
It does give me comfort knowing I had I had
Charlie's chief of staff, the pastor that married him on
last night. He did surround himself with amazing people that
had incredible values.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
His faith is way.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
More important to him, was more important to him, and
instilling that in young people was his passion in life.
And and they they worked very hard at at for him.
He would he would be so inquisitive. He wanted answers
to be able to give these kids when he'd do
these open mic moments with them in these hostile environments
(02:43):
on college campuses. You know, and I bet a lot
of these kids never heard or you know, many people
speaking out, certainly not in the classroom, on issues involving
their lives and what their life can be. And you know,
injecting hook up culture for example. I mean, it's so
commonplace today you just kind of take it for granted
(03:05):
and that's just the way things are. But does it
have to really be that way? You know, I'll use
my words, not his, but you know, really going to
frat parties and being the kid throwing up at the
end of the night and the bushes outside, is that
the life you want to live? And you know how
pervasive drug use is among young people today, and hearing
(03:28):
that maybe you should get back to church and believe
in God and find a higher purpose and the purpose
for which you were created. And he was successful, and
even in the aftermath of his assassination, that message still
resonates and is resonating around the country, and I'm hearing
it from people all over the place. Linda, you'll find
(03:49):
this interesting. You know, I always kid around on the program.
How you know my daughter has never been particularly that
interested in what her dad does for a living. Was
just a couple of years ago, I said, well, what
time's my radio show on? And she didn't get the
right to time. Right, He goes, oops, I mean, you know,
I mean, now she's he watched the entire thing yesterday,
(04:10):
and she said, why didn't you take me? I didn't
know she wanted to come. I would have gladly taken her,
and uh and then telling me that she was crying
and and how this had deeply impacted her. And you know,
my son had only wanted to meet two people of
all the people I've interviewed over all these years. He
wanted to meet President Trump and he wanted to meet
(04:31):
Charlie Kirk and I was able to arrange both and so.
And then this poll comes out today. I thought this
was pretty amazing. It was actually on Fox News where
I saw it, stunning data revealing a surge in Christianity
in the United States. Look at this forty one point
(04:52):
six percent in terms of an increase in Bible sales.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Maybe we call it the work effect. I don't know,
seems like it to me.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
App downloads of the Bible up a whopping seventy nine
point five percent, Christian music streaming plus fifty percent. I mean,
I don't talk about it a lot, but you know,
I often at night will go to YouTube and I'll watch.
I think some of the best music out there is
(05:23):
my buddy Michael W. Smith is one one concert of
his that stands above all else to me, and I've
told him this personally is the bridgestone Rena Michael W.
Smith twenty eighteen. And I probably see ce Winans as
part of it. He's got a whole band accompanying him,
and you watch the crowd, and I can't I get
(05:46):
something out of watching that every time that I see it.
I love cc Winan. I think she's one of the
as one of the most angelic, amazing voices of all time.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
And I love of other.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Christian singers too many, too numerous to name it this point.
And I you know, i'd love, for example, Hillsong. I
know they had their controversy in New York, but that
does not take away from the profound and deep message
in their music. And I love Christian contemporary music. It's probably,
I guess now it's really my number one format that
(06:22):
I'm that I like and what I listened to more
than any other genre of music. I know, Linda, you're
into it as well. Anyone who do use your favorite
you love you have a lot of.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
People Uh, I'm a pretty big fan of Lauren Daegel.
I'm really into Uh.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
We saw Lauren Diegel in concert. Oh really, I didn't
tell you that I got I was able to go
online and buy front row seat just like came about.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Yeah, it was.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
Uh, it was here in my free state of Florida,
and I had three other people with me, and I
guess somebody on our team spotted me. And then I
got to go backstage and meet her. I have pictures
with her and got to's.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
Pretty amazing talk to her. She's incredible, very special. Her
voice is unbelievable. Yeah, and it's pretty wild.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
I'm a big fan of that song Rescue. And you know, look,
you know, people ask me all the time, how have
you survived as long in this business and is competitive
as it is? And people come and people go and
all this stuff. And I really credit two things, and
one is certainly my parents and the work ethic that
they instilled in me from a young kid. And I
(07:32):
know my kids roll their eyes. If I start listing
every job I've had in my life and that I
started out without any money in my life, nobody wants
to hear it anymore. I got it I've heard you
loud and clear. I won't go over it, but it did.
It had a profound impact on me. And the other
thing that had a profound impact on me is all
those years that my parents dragged me to church and
(07:53):
twelve years of Catholic school got to me and I
realized that I have a conscience and a soul. And
if if I snap at Linda, you know, even I'm
using you as an example, you know, usually I'll say
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that. You know,
just little things bother me. My conscience is alive and
well in me. And what is a conscience. A conscience
(08:14):
is an awareness something within you let you know you're
being a jerk and you're wrong. So if there's two
things that have kind of protected me in my life,
I would argue those are the two things. And I
would even then take it another step and say that,
you know, if I was going to write two more books,
one would be an Undeserved Life and the second one
would be Everything I wanted to tell you, but new
(08:34):
would get me fired. Everyone likes the title to that,
and they're like, what did you want to say that
you didn't say? Why don't you just have the courage
to say it. But I would say, in my mind
that is the Charlie Kirk effect. And you know, to
the extent we don't talk probably enough, we were so
immersed in the day to day political comings and goings,
(08:55):
because if you don't live in a free country, none
of this is possible. So that is a prerequisite in
my mind why my passions politics. But at the end
of the day, you know, all of us, I believe,
you know, we all have a unique fingerprint. We all
were created by the same God. I believe that my
(09:15):
entire life. That's why I can't stand people that are racist,
et cetera, et cetera. I believe that the word education
the Latin that I studied in high school at a seminary,
is so relative. And I've used this term a lot
because I think it's so impactful. And the root word
of education is a ducrede to bring forth from within
that that's predicated on a belief that God put in
(09:38):
every every human soul potential. I believe in human potential.
I believe in the individual. I believe the best system
of governance that that allows for that potential to rise
to the top is is liberty and freedom and capitalism.
That's what I believe the great story of successive America.
(10:00):
It's based on liberty and freedom, and that liberty and
freedom allows you to be the person that God created
you to be. Certainly, our framers and our founders understood
the Judeo Christian principles as a as a foundational principle
to make this country, allow this country to be great.
As imperfect as they were, they believe we were endowed
(10:22):
by a creator, a God, and that this country, you know,
is not You know that that rights come from God,
not from government. These are not these are not cliches,
these are not phrases. These are deeply held beliefs and
principles that should guide our country in the years, in
the decades to come, knowing that every generation which is
(10:46):
one generation away freedom, is one generation away from extinction.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
As Ronald Reagan told us.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
And you know, my advice to people, and people ask
me all the time about, well, what advice do you
have for me? Is find whatever you love and find
a way to make money at it. And it doesn't
matter what you do. But the other thing you have
to do is you have to understand that you're not
here to be served. I think that we are here
to find our purpose and serve other people while you're
(11:14):
also building your own life. You know, people create goods
and services that others want, need and desire. That's capitalism.
And while you're doing it, you're helping others and it
benefits you. It's a win win, and it's the perfect system.
You give everybody everything. Why is anybody ever going to
try to reach their true potential?
Speaker 1 (11:32):
Then not?
Speaker 2 (11:34):
And that's the whole point. That's why socialism and I
wrote an whole chapter and live free or die in
every form manifestation, you know, fails. That's why when people
trust the government, I can't understand it for the life
of me, because the government doesn't do many things well
at all. How's your school system, How's law and order?
You know, how's the government doing with their managing of
your money? Social security, medicate all on the verge of
(11:57):
bankruptcy and solvency in spite of promises, and then the
left promises more and more government and what you know,
how did the Obamacare work out? Didn't work out too well?
And so I want everyone to, you know, live in freedom,
and that gives you the window of opportunity. And it
doesn't matter what age you are. You know, we're now
on the precipice. And I say this to you, my audience,
(12:19):
because you've been so good to me and gave me
a life I never dreamed of. And that is I
just say to all of you that I believe foundationally,
we have now set this country up for what the
president is called a golden age. You know, when Reagan
cut taxes, it was the longest period of peacetime economic
growth in history, dropped the top marginal rates from seventy
(12:41):
to twenty eight percent. Donald Trump just gave us the
largest tax cuts in history. That means that the economy
is going to grow. Interest rates are going to go down.
You know, sale of pre existing homes will kick back in,
home building will kick back in. Never before in our
history has any one president I think in all the
(13:02):
years Biden was in office and Obama's in office, maybe
one one, you know, maybe one hundred billion in committed investments.
Donald Trump is he claimed eighteen trillion in invested money
in the next four years for manufacturing semiconductors and pharmaceuticals
and all sorts of other things. All of this is
(13:22):
opportunity for you, energy dominance, freeing up our energy sector.
All of these are going to represent opportunities. The only
thing that might get in the way of you taking
your life to the next level is any self imposed limitation.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
You know.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
For example, I know people that would be like, oh,
I'm never leaving my hometown. Well, okay, that means either
the job comes to your hometown or you would miss
out on an opportunity to quadruple your salary and start
a new career, especially young people that might be listening
to the show. You know, dream big, don't dream small,
and take chances. Look down, you're on the high board.
(14:00):
It's scary, jump and and do so with faith and
confidence that you know you're designed to jump. Is God
put you on that board for a reason, and that
things will come out of it that you never imagined
or dreamed of. When I first got behind a radio
microphone and I loved it, you know, I jumped and
jumped and jumped and kept jumping, and you know, and
(14:23):
it got bigger than I ever imagined. And I think
that is the personification of you know, finding your God
given whatever talent. I'm not saying I'm talented I'm just
saying that finding what you love and you know, sharing
it with others and serving others. Look at them, look
at I'll go through this on the other side. But
think of all the every person that serves you in
(14:45):
a restaurant. Okay, they're all serving you. You're We're not
designed to sit back as kings in this life, in
my view, So we have a lot going on in
terms of news today.
Speaker 1 (14:59):
I'm why all of it.
Speaker 2 (15:02):
The Schumer shut down continues, the radicalism by Governor Pritzker.
You know, I look at this, this idiot. I can't
believe that this is the state of the Democratic Party.
You know, politically, I'd like to say it's great for
the Republicans, and it is the radicalization of the Democratic Party.
(15:23):
And when I was in DCS today, I talked to
a lot of people about this.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
They'd never seen anything like it in their life.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
And I actually, I think I'm able to pinpoint the
canary and the coal mine on this.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
And I believe it was Joe Lieberman.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
And remember Joe Lieberman, vice presidential candidate Democratic Party ran
for office.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
What are you wrong with Al Gore? And what year
was that? Ninety two? Whatever?
Speaker 2 (15:48):
No, I'm sorry. Two thousand, yeah, two thousand so, and
then he runs in Connecticut. I mean he was not
he was not liberal enough for Connecticut. Now on issues
involving national security and defense and standing up against radical Islamis,
(16:10):
he was phenomenal. He was great, He was steadfast, he
was strong. He believed in America's strength, he believed in
america defense. He believed America out of purpose and not
that we want to fight wars. It's just we need
to understand there's a lot of evil in the world,
and we got to protect ourselves and protect our freedoms
and our liberties. And I think that's why Donald Trump's great,
(16:32):
greatest legacy will be the Golden Dome eventually one day.
And anyway, he gets primaried and loses the Democratic primary
in the state of Connecticut. Unbelievable, and then he runs
as an independent. And he's running as an independent. He's
always been a friend of the show. He used to
come on the show. He passed since passed away. His
(16:53):
wife Adasa, one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.
And he used to come on this show regularly. And
you know, I used to kid around with him and
we talk about what we agreed agreed with and what
we disagreed with.
Speaker 1 (17:07):
You know, you could agree with him and not be
so disagreeable.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
He would be one of the Democrats that would be
outspoken against this Nazi, fascist racist Hitler Stalin Mussolini comparison crap.
He would be against it anyway. So he's running as
an independent. And I always liked him, and I would
say that on radio and TV. Linda, you remember you
were with me back in the day I was, And
(17:31):
then you remember the story because I got a call
from Joe Lieberman. He said in his very soft spoken way,
he was a kind of soft spoken guy, very kind,
very generous, that could never raise his voice kind of guy.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
And no, and he was even when he argued he
was gentle. He's like, well he always did that, that
was his thing.
Speaker 4 (17:49):
WOA.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
And he always came on the show, always very kind
with his time.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
Right all right, and his family is terrific. So he
calls me one day out of the blue or writes me,
and then I call him whatever however that worked out,
and I said, uh, hey.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Sena, how are you. What's going on? What's going on?
Speaker 2 (18:09):
He goes, you keep talking about me on your radio
and TV show, and you keep saying nice things about me,
he said, every time you do, you're killing me in
my race in Connecticut.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
I said, really, I said, well, I'm just telling the truth.
You're a nice guy, and.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
That we get along, and that you know, you are
liberal on social issues, not by the way, not nothing
by today's liberal standards on social issues and woke in
trans and DEI and all that, nothing compared to today.
And I said, well, do you want me to start
trashing on radio and TV? Would you like me to
attack you?
Speaker 1 (18:44):
It would? Would that help you out more?
Speaker 2 (18:47):
And it forever became a joke with us, and then
he ended up winning in the general election as an
independent in Connecticut.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
But that was the tip of the iceberg.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
That was the tip of the spear, That was the
canary in the coal mine. That was the moment the
Democratic Party began this process of now going off the rails,
you know, culminating and where Chucky Schumer is with the
Schumer shutdown, which is, you know, he has to give
in to the radicals that run his party, and he
is giving into them. And you know, I was having
(19:19):
this discussion, I explained, I was talking to a bunch
of senators last night, I had an opportunity to speak
to them and.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
I told them that story.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
They were they loved that story and off the rails
and I talked to even more quote moderate Republicans and
they couldn't believe the story.
Speaker 1 (19:37):
And they can't.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
Believe what they're dealing with in the US Senate and
how Chuck Schumer is just unavailable to even have a
reasonable discussion with at this point when meanwhile, he, as
we've played over and over again, he spent his entire
career talking out against against shutting down the government. Pretty
fascinating little detail that Axios picked up. We had picked
(19:58):
up on it as well, that Democrats in Congress say
President Trump's methods for paying the military and funding food
stamps for vulnerable communities are clearly illegal, but they're not
going to fight it, you know, because the President is
planning to divert eight billion dollars in previously appropriated funds
for the military for military research and development to pay
(20:19):
the troops. As we now are at the point they're
no longer going to be getting checks now, they can't
do a thing until this what is this called the
Kings No King's rally that they're having around the country,
all over the country on Saturday, by the way, wherever
you live, find out where these rallies are and stay
(20:40):
and keep your family as far away as possible. That
is my tip of the week. Don't go to those rallies.
Don't don't have anything to do with it. Now, if
you want to report on it, just know you're putting
yourself into a hostile area. And God only knows what
some of these these lunatics on the left are capable of.
We said, what was the guy's name, Nick Soto nor
(21:01):
Nick Sorter, and we had him on TV. I've really
admired this guy, and he's very popular on social media.
And he kept going back. They had one hundred nights
of protests in Portland, and night after night. The one
night that he he had already been assaulted by these
lunatics and he walks back in the next night. This guy,
(21:23):
God bless him. He's got an American flag with him.
God forbid you bring an American flag, you know, to
one of these, you know, pro Antifa, you know anti
ice protests. Got to help you, and but he did
it anyway. Then he ended up getting arrested the charges
obviously dropped. He was a victim in this case, but
I give a lot of oh hang on. The President
(21:45):
is now speaking from the Oval Office, and the FBI
directors there as well.
Speaker 5 (21:49):
Let's listen in we house, and that's really what's happened,
and getting tremendous reviews, and we appreciate it, but we're
here for a different reason. It's called Operation Summer Heat,
which is an appropriate term in light of what we're doing.
And early yesterday morning, I returned from the Middle East
where we celebrated a historic agreement in years of suffering
(22:10):
and conflict. Amazing. Every country came together, I mean even
the enemies came out and totally endorsed it. Everybody.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
I've never seen anything like it.
Speaker 5 (22:20):
Nobody's seen anything like it. And just as we are
forging peace and stability abroad, we're also restoring peace and
safety and stability at home. And you see that in Washington,
d c. Maybe better than any place, because we got
there and within twelve days it was very good, and
within thirty days it's been as safe as any city
in the country. It's been great. Took out seventeen hundred people,
(22:43):
got them out. These are career criminals in many cases,
and people that shouldn't have been allowed in by the
Biden administration. Historically, the summer months have been a time
when violent crime sore, as you know, but not under
President Trump today also of a sweeping law enforcement effort
known as Operation Summer Heat. We were in many cities
(23:04):
that people didn't know about. We kept it a little quiet,
and it had a big impact. And you'll hear that
in a second. But over the past few months, FBI
offices in all fifty states made crushing violent crime a
top enforcement priority. That's what they did, rounding up and
arresting thousands of the most violent and dangerous criminals. And
(23:26):
these are among the most dangerous and violent people in
the world. They were allowed in many cases, not in
all cases, but in many cases they were allowed in
by a very foolish, actually stupid open border policy. Just
anybody could have come in. They emptied out their jails,
their prisons, their mental institutions, they emptied them into our country.
(23:46):
And the people behind me have done an incredible job
because if we didn't have that administration, it would have
been so much easier. They allowed millions of people in
this country that shouldn't have been allowed, including over eleven
thousand murderers, half of whom murdered more than one person,
and many of them are gone now or they're put
in prison because we don't want to have them come back,
(24:08):
so we literally put them in our prison, which we
don't want to do, but we bring them back to
their countries working with state and local partners. The FBI
arrested over eight thousand violent criminals during the course of
this period in major cities like in New Orleans Nashville.
We saw a two hundred and fifty percent increase in
arrests we got, and we really went after the bad ones.
(24:31):
These include seven hundred and twenty five individuals wanted for
violent crimes against children and murderers. These arrests are in
addition to the work of our historic federal task forces
that make DC safe. Task force has been unbelievable. I mean,
the job they've done, it's incredible, and it's been so
(24:53):
nice because so many people they're going out to dinner
and they're having dinners they wouldn't. They didn't go out
for four years, and now they're going out three times
a week. Restaurants are opening, restaurants are full, and usually
that means a lot of good things. But restaurants that
were closed they're now opening up, and everybody's happy. It's
(25:13):
nobody's ever seen anything like it, actually, and everybody feels safe.
You can you can have a child walk right through
the middle of Washington, DC and nothing's going to happen.
We were losing more than one person a week. And
why they're being killed.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
On an average if you look at the magnitude of
this week, understand the president flew all the way to Israel,
then he flew to Egypt, then he flew home, arrived
about two thirty three in the morning, then he had
a full day with the President of Argentina, did a
full cabinet meeting, did the Medal of Freedom award for
(25:50):
Charlie Kirk, and here he is back at it today.
I've never seen anything like him. I mean, think of
the Biden years. You'd never see your president when you did,
he couldn't hawk pretty unbelievable now based on what he
is saying, you know, listen to like the likes of JB.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
Pritzger.
Speaker 2 (26:07):
Now, remember four thousand dead people under his watch as governor,
four thousand, five times the rate the New York City
and he's suggesting, Hey, you Trump officials that are trying
to keep the people, the citizens of my state alive,
you might get prosecuted when Democrats are back in charge.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Listen to this.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
We're going to call for accountability, and indeed, you know,
the tables will turn someday. These people should recognize that
maybe they're not going to get prosecuted today, although we're
looking at doing that, but they may get prosecuted after
the Trump administration for the things that they did because
the statute limitations won't have run.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
How about maybe charging people that go out of their
way through defund dismantle no bail laws. Reimagine the police
were simply, like in the case of Chicago, turning a
blind eye to weekly statistics of people shot and shot
and killed. And they're the ones that are supposed to
(27:06):
be in charge and keep people safe and secure.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
What is the first role of government?
Speaker 2 (27:10):
Is it not to allow you know, law and order, safety,
security again a prerequisite to pursue happiness.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
It is.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
It is such a spectacular failure in my view, but
you know, they just keep doing what they're doing. They
keep fuming away. I noticed the story today New York Post.
Letitia James, fugitive grand niece lives in the house that
she bought through that mortgage of fraud allegation, has been
arrested twice for assaulting cops, not once, according to the
(27:42):
New York Post, but twice. Oh boy, I can't make
all this up. I mean, the looney left is the
looney left, and they're getting worse and worse by the day.
They're not getting better, They're getting worse. Another example, you know,
I mean, we sat there for four years watch Biden
Harris Mayorker's light, US borders closed, border secure, Oh okay.
(28:03):
ICE moved to detain a Biden the illegal who raped
an eleven year old girl three times after Biden immigration
officials labeled the child rapist the non enforcement priority. This
is according to the Department of Homeland Security. US Immigrations
and Customs Enforcement has lodged an immigration detainer against a
thirty five year old criminal illegal from Al Salvador who
(28:25):
is convicted of repeatedly raping an eleven year old girl
in Virginia. Ice lodge the detainer against this guy, who
was sentenced to thirty years in prison following his conviction.
His crimes are, as they said, unthinkable, monstrous, repeatedly raping
an eleven year old girl in her own home. ICE lodged,
then arrest detainer to ensure after his prison sentence, he
(28:49):
is removed from our country, not able to prey on
any more innocent American children. Biden administration marked this Hannis
criminal as a non enforcement priority, allowing this idiot to
roam free and commit more crimes. They pointed out in
their statement, you know, these are the types of depraved
individuals and criminals our brave ICE law enforcement officers are
(29:12):
arresting and removing from our country every single day. Ever
noticed the media? They don't care. And you know, why
would JB. Pritzker take down the fences? Why would Gavin
want the masks off of ICE agents that are being
doxed and threatened the way they have that they don't
have jurisdictions called the supremacy clause. It's the federal government
(29:35):
that enforces federal laws, not the states. And they're trying
to circumvent federal authority themselves and then lecturing us on
what a threat to democracy actually looks like when they
themselves are the real threat to democracy anyway. Eight hundred
nine to four one sewn. Oh and by the way,
you remember big balls that work for Doze. Yeah, the guys
(29:55):
that beat him up, the teams that beat him up. Yeah,
they get a slap on the wrist. Ah, why bother
punishing them? Remember the guy that the pro Palestinian fire
bombers flapped with a fifty year jail sentence for trying
to assassinate Thank goodness, Josh Shapiro. Unbelievable. His family was
sleeping in that house. And if you saw the pictures,
it's scary as hell. Eight hundred nine one Shawn. If
